Join us for a meaningful and educational morning at the SSA Ridgewood Food Pantry, where children aged 5 and up will learn how the pantry supports local families in need. 

Each child is asked to bring five (5) non‑perishable food items to donate. After a short, age‑appropriate talk about the role of the pantry in our community, kids will help stock the shelves with their donations – giving them a hands-on way to contribute and understand the importance of helping others.

To see which items are most needed, please refer to SSA Ridgewood’s updated donation list:

This event is a great opportunity to introduce children to the values of empathy, generosity, and community service. We hope you’ll join us in supporting SSA’s mission to care for our neighbors.
